Loose Skin Above BB After Umbilical Float. Options? (photo)

I am almost 5 months post op. I can grab a thick roll of skin above my BB. I already have scars underneath both breasts from a BA. I have been researching reverse TT. I am aware of the scar formation which honestly doesn't bother me. Aside from that, is there any other reason why I should steer away from this? I am not going back to my original PS. I will be switching out to silicone and getting a lift at the same time. Btw, I am in great shape, am 50, 5'6, 128 lbs. I just want a flat stomach.

You are probably correct in your assessment. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of tummy tucks and body contouring procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.

It appears you are a candidate for a reverse tummy tuck based on your pictures. It makes it somewhat harder to combine a breast lift with the tummy tuck but it can be done. You may need a small amount of liposuction just above your belly button.

Thank you for the question. Reverse tummy tuck works, and from your photos your lower abdomen looks okay. So with already having infra mammary scars, I do not see why this would not be a good set up for you. They will need to be slightly longer than you have now, but that should not be an issue.
An examination is ideal, so the laxity can be seen as well as examination of the breasts. Not sure what you need uplift wise for the breasts but that needs to be evaluated to see if it can be accomplished at the same time.
